Description

Part of the La Crosse Normal School (established in 1909) this building was added in 1939 to train teachers and also served as an elementary school to act as both a school and laboratory for training teachers and developing curriculum. While its purpose has changed over the years and some departments have moved to other facilities, much of the building remains the same as it was constructed. For example, the library has moved but the room is used for teaching. An original small theater is still in use. The only significant addition is a penthouse added in the mid 1990s to house mechanical equipment.
